WASHINGTON (AP) -- John Kerry on Saturday looked to frame the next presidential debate in a speech criticizing President Bush's economic record, but also tried to get in a final word about their last face-off by declaring himself the winner and Bush a liar.

"George Bush lost the debate," an announcer says in a television ad Kerry's campaign unveiled Saturday. "Now he's lying about it."

The Democratic presidential candidate's accusation comes two days after his first debate with Bush, when he told moderator Jim Lehrer that he avoids saying that the president is lying to the American people.

"I've never, ever used the harshest word, as you did just then," Kerry said. "And I try not to, but I'll nevertheless tell you that I think he has not been candid with the American people."

[Petronski]

That ad refers to Kerry's comment in the debate that a pre-emptive strike must pass "the global test where your countrymen, your people understand fully why you're doing what you're doing and you can prove to the world that you did it for legitimate reasons."

The Bush ad called it the "Kerry doctrine," and asked: "So we must seek permission from foreign governments before protecting America?"

Kerry is such a jerk.

"George Bush lost the debate Now he's lying about it."

ROTFLMAO! I'm sorry, this is the alltime lamest, crybabiest thing I've ever heard. "WAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!! He said HE won, but *I* won!"

I've never seen anything so juvenile in a political campaign in my life. Unbelievable!

Hey Kerry,

SHOVE IT, SHOVE IT, SHOVE IT!!!!!!!!

[mammer]

I'm sick and tired of Kerry, this man has a personality defect

[MNJohnnie]

George Bush lost the debate," an announcer says in a television ad Kerry's campaign unveiled Saturday. "Now he's lying about it."


Oh my, yes that really makes Kerry sound Presidential. Wonder how the Doom and Gloom crowd explain why Kerry feels its necessary to go this hysterically negative? If the polls all show a "Closing race" why go for the hard core negative attack ads?????

[Petronski]

The point they're making is that at the beginning of the debate Kerry said "I will never seek a global permission slip" or some such words, and that thus, the Bush ad is wrong.


Trouble is, the 'Global Test' is his TACIT admission that he will do exactly that: Kofi may I?

[quesera]

Kerry is such a jerk

Definitely first class.

[clee1]

sKerry is a traitor, and he knows it. Worse yet for him, the American people know it too.

Kerry is just plain EVIL.

[ambrose]

The point they're making is that at the beginning of the debate Kerry said "I will never seek a global permission slip"

So he was against the Global Test before he was for it? Is that Kerry's argument?

Kerry slipped, pure and simple. He's a good fast talker, but when you talk too fast....

[GoLightly]

I didn't think it was possible to lie about an opinion.

That ad refers to Kerry's comment in the debate that a pre-emptive strike must pass "the global test where your countrymen, your people understand fully why you're doing what you're doing and you can prove to the world that you did it for legitimate reasons."

The Bush ad called it the "Kerry doctrine," and asked: "So we must seek permission from foreign governments before protecting America?"

That has been Kerry's position since 1972 - - - or has he flip-flopped on that?

Kerry's campaign insisted that its new ad would run. However, at least three such response ads it produced over the past two weeks never made it to the airwaves and were used solely to generate news coverage.

What a pathetic sleazeball. Typical democrat party hack.

[aft_lizard]

I love it, this actually helps Bush. Kerry the gloater and then lies about Bush lying, how sweet it is.

[Petronski]

I can't believe they think this is a good idea: they are trying to nuance their way out of the charge in the Bush ad.

LOL

Democrat operation FOOTBULLET proceeds apace.

[ladyinred]

The jerk is the one lying, again, as usual. That seems to be a democrat trait these days. He did make the remark about a Global test, and he can deny it until hell freezes over just as his idiot bride denied what she said. It is all on tape however.

No further comment necessary, I trust.
